This wine is produced using the RIPASSO technique, which is intentionally more restrictively applied in relation to the standard production method. The wine is obtained by going over again, once only, the premium Valpolicella Classico over the same quantity of Amarone marc. As a result, an authentic local wine is produced which elegantly exhibits a delightfully complex fruity aroma and spicy tones complemented with a good acidity and just the right alcohol content.
The grapes are picked by hand and then immediately destemmed and crushed, prior to maceration at controlled temperatures and undergoing complete alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. In the beginning of March the Valpolicella Classico wine is pumped over the pomace from the Amarone and consequently references.
A deep intense ruby red color, with hints of red fruit, spices and cocoa on the nose. Warming and smooth on the palate, nicely balanced by rounded tannins.
70% corn / 25% rye / 5% malted barley
Barrel #245
The exclusive bourbon inside this bottle has been pulled from a single barrel, and hand-selected for its impeccable quality and flavour profile. The result is a masterpiece of uniquely dark and complex flavours, intermingled with surprisingly bright notes and the exuberant spice of rye.
Shane’s Notes:
Nose: Caramel apple, creme brulee, burnt orange, and banana pudding
Palate: Caramel driven off the start with a touch of vanilla bean. Buttery, creamy texture that’s followed up by a smash of rye spice and cinnamon. Dark chocolate, berries, and waves of oak follow.
Finish: Oak, tobacco, and orange zest linger on the palate.

Two casks, distilled together and aged side by side for a decade and more, combined again into a single, special bottling; Ripe to be enjoyed, savoured and shared.
Fragrant and fruity from the moment liquid and glass meet, blooming as fields of wildflower and low bush berries. Simmered citrus meets an arresting nuttiness, preserved lemon and marzipan orbiting a rich nougat core, flashing and flittering as the furor fades.
Innovation in a new form, using sweet and flavourful wort in tandem with crystal clear glacier water to build on flavours years in the making. Deproofing whisky is simple, by should it be?
A unique marrying of fresh brewers’ wort and mature whiskies. Rather than watering down the whisky pulled from each exceptional cask, Two Brewers seeks to elevate and accentuate the casks’ flavours, creating a bright and complex composition, inspired by the tradition of the Distillers’ Breakfast.
In 1783, the Evan Williams opened Kentucky’s first distillery on the banks of the Ohio River. Many years and barrels later, they still produce Bourbon the right way, using traditional, time-honoured methods. Evan Williams Bottled-in-Bond is aged under government supervision and meeting the exact requirements for a Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon. It has all the kick you expect—but still goes down smooth.
Complex aromas and flavours of stone fruit, caramel, vanilla, and oak; expected kick of heat comes through on the dry finish.
The full flavours of this spirit can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Try it neat, on the rocks or mixed in your favourite bourbon cocktail.
